* After the bell has coasted to about 20 degrees, watch for the period to update then press the '''ON''' key to save it current period. The display will say ''Stop'' and the top period will remain static. The bottom right number will indicate the approximated angle that the bell is swinging. | * After the bell has coasted to about 20 degrees, watch for the period to update then press the '''ON''' key to save it current period.

#If you set the Oscillation angle too high, the start period will be too long and the bell may fight against the period at start up. It is better to set the oscillation period to an angle that the motor can reasonably reach with the start pulses than an accurate 20 degrees. | #If you set the Oscillation angle too high, the start period will be too long and the bell may fight against the period at start up.

#You can manually swing the bell and the system will display its estimated angle on the bottom line. If you can manually make the bell ring satisfactory by hand, note this number and put it in the desired angle (below). | #You can manually swing the bell and the system will display its estimated angle on the bottom line.
